Enabling groups
A group is an object created during system programming.
Groups are required in order to execute certain system functions,
but groups bear no physical relationship to the system.
For example, smoke detectors can be assigned to the same zone
group even though they are not attached to the same wire run.
Enabling a group establishes the group as part of the system just
as if it were a hardware component. When enabled, any changes
in state that occurred while the group was disabled are
processed. Enabling a zone group enables each of the devices in
the group individually. Enabling other groups only enables their
group response.
There are several types of group:
• And group
• Check-in group
• Matrix group
• Service group
• Guard patrol group
• Zone group
• Instruction text group
To enable a group:
1. Press the Command Menus button , then choose Enable.
2. Choose Group.
3. Choose the group type.
4. Select the group from the list.
5. If prompted, enter a valid user access level password.
